My go to breakfast. Been making this daily since grade 8 (2016). Super simple, energizing, tons of variants.
Ingredients
- 1/3 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup water (1:3 ratio)
- splash of milk (add at end)
Instructions Put oats + water in pot. Pick your vibe:
- method A: boiling water → add oats → turn off heat
- method B: cold water + oats → bring to boil → turn off heat
- method C (lazy): bowl + microwave 1-2 min
Toppings Whatever’s in the fridge tbh
- frozen berries (thawed) + peanut butter drizzle
- banana: half before cooking (gets mushy, adds sweet), half after (fresh)
- vanilla protein powder (mix in after cooking for gains)
- cinnamon, honey, nuts, chocolate chips
Notes
- dutch oats cook fast, kazakh oats are weird but work
- check your oats label first time, then wing it
- don’t cook in milk, unless you want to run awayayayayayya
- protein powder: add off-heat or it clumps
- I eye ball it, but keep 1:3 ratio (80g oats = 240ml water)
